Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

A low pressure system will approach the area tonight. This system will
bring a wintry mix of snow, sleet and freezing rain tonight into early
Sunday morning before changing over to all rain.  Up to an inch of
snow/sleet and a glaze of freezing rain is expected, which will make for
slippery travel and hazardous walking conditions.  A Winter Weather
Advisory is in effect for most of the region from 9 pm tonight to 7 AM
Sunday.

Additionally, strong to damaging winds are expected Sunday evening into
Monday evening across much of the region. A High Wind Watch is in effect
for most of the area, as wind gusts may reach up to 60 mph.  This could
result in downed trees and power lines.

Also, lake effect snow may produce light accumulations to portions of
northern Herkimer and northwest Hamilton counties late Sunday night into
Monday night.

Please refer to attached briefing for more details.
